Answers (2)
Blood is the fluid connective tissue. It consists of blood plasma and cellular components. The cellular components of blood are of the following types.
1. Erythrocytes- These are red blood cells. Erythrocytes are red due to the presence of haemoglobin. Erythrocytes are biconcave, coloured cells devoid of a nucleus. These mainly help in transporting respiratory gases.
2. Leukocytes- These are white blood cells. There are 5 types of leucocytes i.e. neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes and monocytes. Leu
kocytes are mainly involved in fighting infections and providing immunity.
3. Thrombocytes- These are blood platelets involved in the coagulation of blood.
4. Plasma- The liquid state of blood is called plasma, as it makes up ~55% of blood. It is pale yellow and when separated, it consists of salts, nutrients, water, and enzymes.
5 Platelets- These are tiny disc-shaped cells that help regulate blood flow when any part of the body is damaged, aiding in fast recovery through blood clotting.
